ca_gere Posted October 24, 2013 Report Share Posted October 24, 2013 I've got this mint idea about a device which works like the exact opposite to a Microwave. A turbo-fridge if you will. I really can't hack warm drinks that are meant to be chilled, be it soft drinks, fruit juice or booze. Like when I've just done the shopping, and the juice has been sat at room temperature on the supermarket shelf. I get it home, and I want a glass of it, but it's was warm as bath water. Get out of my mouth!So, I'd pour a glass of it, and i'd stick it in the Turbo Fridge, set a desired temperature, and bang - it whirls around for 60 seconds, and it's ready. Ice cool. Or I could turn it into a huge block of ice if I wanted. Instant ice-lolly. Supreme appliance!Maybe it could merge into the already existing Microwave, and the settings could go both ways as selected, alot like when the TV and VCR first merged, forming a mind bendingly exciting portable combination of our two most treasured household items. But I think I'd like to release it as a stand-alone appliance first, so I can give it a marketable name like Dr Freeze, or the Frostinator, or something that is related to a character that Arnie has played, so he can put a televised sales pitch on this thing, preferable with skin missing, exposing his robotic anatomy. I think if people saw Arnie enjoying a glass of juice fresh from the FROSTINATOR, they would be pretty suckered into buying one from the word Go. The Governator wouldn't lie. Would he?You all must have some crazy scheme up your sleeve that you'd like to unleash on the world if you had the know-how. Share!

Eupraxia Posted October 24, 2013 Report Share Posted October 24, 2013 I'd invent a comb with a small digital radio on it. It'll have a built-in speaker, so you won't need headphones, and it's right beside your ears anyway, so you'll always hear it. You can have a dance whilst you comb. Or listen to shit sports debate on talkSPORT. Hipsters would love it for styling their fringes and quiffs whilst tuning in to Radio 6 Music in the evening. No more lonely hair combing. You're never alone with a radio comb. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soda Jerk Posted October 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2013 It only took 4 years http://foodbeast.com/2013/10/24/v-tex-reverse-microwave/ Exceptional memory. I'd forgotton about this appliance. It's literally going to save lives. I'll write them a snooty letter, claiming this was my idea, and they stole it, so the least they can do is give me a freebie Turbo Fridge. Can't wait to receive it.

Eupraxia Posted October 25, 2013 Report Share Posted October 25, 2013 I hate these whisky stones, but people do go crazy for them. A way to cool your whisky, without adulterating the flavours and aromas, and still providing that satisfying click on the side of the crystal glass. Oh wait, maybe I don't hate them after all.

Chris Posted October 25, 2013 Report Share Posted October 25, 2013 A way to cool your whisky, without adulterating the flavours and aromas Doesn't cooling whisky kill the flavours and aromas? The whole thing about not putting ice in whisky isn't so much about dilution, but that cold liquid has less flavour than room temperature liquid.

Eupraxia Posted October 25, 2013 Report Share Posted October 25, 2013 Yeah possibly. From experience, I find it depends on the whisky and how it was made; oily and smoky Islay whiskies will be more affected by the drop in temperature than the lighter Speysides, Highlands, and Lowlands. The SWRA are even reticent to publish any literature about this - it's largely subjective and dependent on one's own palate, apparently. I have witnessed people claim that they find the drop in temperature brings out more flavours and aromas to their palate and senses; yet others think it destroys flavours and aromas. I haven't done much of my own research on this to be honest, I tend to prefer my malts neat and blends with a chilled ginger ale. I do love the clink on the side of the glass, though. Such a glorious noise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ca_gere Posted October 25, 2013 Report Share Posted October 25, 2013 The two examples arent quite what man cubes are all about. They're too uniform in shape. Man cubes would be shaped randomly as if chipped off an iceberg by hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kirsten Posted October 26, 2014 Report Share Posted October 26, 2014 Was discussing the logistics of coffee-bags (teabags but for coffee) at work the other day. General feeling seemed to be that you'd need to keep the bag in your cup for way longer than you would with tea so it was vetoed. Would be good in a thermos, though.

ca_gere Posted October 26, 2014 Report Share Posted October 26, 2014 I think with coffee there needs to be some kind of compression involved. The water has to be pushed through the coffee in some way, rather than simply steeped. The one-cup cafetiere is probably as close as you'd come.

Yeah, I think Ca_Gere is right, it needs pressure to achieve a good cup of coffee with ground coffee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
